Bayesian inference on LVK O1-O3 events with eccentric aligned-spin waveforms yields log10 Bayes factors of 1.77-4.75 favoring eccentricity for GW200129, GW190701 and GW200208_22, and >99.5% probability that at least one of 57 events is eccentric under an astrophysically motivated rate prior.
GW250114 data confirm the remnant black hole ringdown frequencies lie within 30% of Kerr predictions and that the final horizon area is larger than the sum of the progenitors' areas to high credibility.
DQRbuild toolkit automates data quality vetting for gravitational-wave events, recovering 96% of human-identified issues from O3 with a 24% false alarm rate.
Reanalysis of flagged LVK events with waveform uncertainty models produces consistent spin and precession inferences across raw/deglitched data and multiple waveform approximants.
Residuals after subtracting best-fit waveforms from GWTC-3 events show no significant deviation from noise according to three standard goodness-of-fit tests.
